Proposition 2 (southern hemisphere mail art project)

This is a project for people who live in the countries of the southern hemisphere. 

This exchange process begins by assembling a collection of 100 participants in a list arranged by their Longitude. Starting at the top of the list each participant will photocopy the copy that they receive, sending this photocopy to the next person on the list and returning the previous photocopy back to a central address.

To participate email perdy@perditaphillips.com with your name, snail mail address, Latitude and Longitude.

To get your Latitude and Longitude find your house on google maps http://maps.google.com.au/. You may have to go up to the red ‘new!’ button at the top right hand corner and enable the LatLng Tool Tip. You can then get a 6 decimal point Latitude and Longitude. A minus Latitude means you are in the southern hemisphere. The Longitude will determine your order in the list. Please note that your Latitude will not be exhibited publicly so your house will not be revealed.

I have the first thirty people. The work will take place in 2011 and once I have 100 participants.

The 100 sheets will be assembled and exhibited before documentation of the results is distributed back to participants.
